It was somewhat ironic that I’ll be doing this review of
their recently opened branch first rather than their predecessor. I’m actually
very familiar with their original stall called Warung Senario (a humble looking
warung located within the Hill Top old
commercial area) but the last time I’ve visited that particular place was
probably during my early teen years (which was not that long ago mind you – wink
wink). So when I noticed that this eatery bears the same name as the
latter, it piques my interest to stop by their place within the Fajar Complex
area (the exact shop formerly occupied by the Hot Platter Restaurant, right in front of 1Homeware).
I was pleased to discover that despite their bare outlook
(in more ways than one), their variety of food was still top notch, with
pre-cooked dishes being fully displayed in their cases as well as yummy looking
fried snacks (such as fried samosa, spring rolls and bananas) readily
available. They also had cook-to-order local staples available should you want
something hot to eat. Either that or you can always try out their multi
flavoured steamed ‘pau’ (white bun). I got attracted to their lauk pauk and had their Nasi Campur
while my partner opted for their Gado-Gado (he’s a fan of said dish). Both dishes
were commendable and evenly flavoured. It was just a shame that the place still
lacks customers though. I personally think some of the contributing factors
might be that they’re still new within said area and is only open during the
day.
** Current status –
Still in operation (as of May 2018)
(Updated on 18/09/2018 - During my sister's recent visit, she told me that the restaurant now operates during the evenings only, as they're now focusing their business solely on selling their Bakso dishes and 'Pentolan Beranak-anak' - as seen below. No joke... I've seen people lining up daily just to get some of those weird looking dish)
